Question

We are cutting down forests to construct industries and houses. As a result, animals are losing their natural homes. So the government has established national parks and biosphere reserves. Find out five such biosphere reserves in India. How do these help animals?

Accepted Answer

A Biosphere reserve is a large, protected area of land meant for the conservation of wildlife, biodiversity, and the traditional lifestyle of the tribal people living in the area. A Biosphere reserve may also contain other protected areas in it. For example, a biosphere reserve may contain wildlife sanctuary and/or national park in it. The names of five biosphere reserves found in India are:

Great Nicobar Biosphere Reserve (Andaman and Nicobar)

Kaziranga Biosphere Reserve (Assam)

Sunderbans Biosphere Reserve (West Bengal)

Kanha Biosphere Reserve (Madhya Pradesh)

Pachmarhi Biosphere Reserve (Madhya Pradesh)

Biosphere reserves help in the conservation of wildlife and biodiversity of the area.

Biosphere reserves are anti-poaching areas, therefore help to save wild animals from illegal hunting.
